Randy and Sheila cant afford to
wait bat waiting is all they can do.
They wait for a phone call about a
job opening or at least a job inter-view.
They wait for word of an affor-dable
apartuoent without a prohib-itive
security deposit.
Randy Rogers and Sheila ( who
asked that her last name not be
used), both are m their late teens
and unemployed. Since meeting m
February, they have been from one
social service agency to another,
searching for food and shelter on a
day- to- d- ay basis.
For a month earlier this year,
Randy worked at the Taco Via res-taurant
on Business Loop 70. But
when the eatery moved to the Bis- cay- ne
Mall in March, be was let go

rary job collecting signatures on an
ana- nucle- ar power petition. For
three weeks, Randy earned petitions
door to door, to shopping malls and
on downtown street corners. He was
paid 15 cents for each signature
He earned a total of $ 15.
Beginning in March, the couple
lived on the $ 110- a- we- ek salary Shei-la
earned from a secretarial job sub-sidized
by the Division of Vocational
Rehabilitation.
That job, too, ended last week.
While Sheila was earning a steady
income, they paid $ 85 a week to live
at the Master Host Inn, 900 Vandiver
Drive. An apartment would have
bees less expensive, they say, but
they couldnt scrape together enough
to put down a deposit
. Now, they live at Everyday Peo-ple,
a residential center that pro-vides
free emergency housing. Ran-dy
says they will be allowed to stay
there a week.
The couple can no longer afford
bus transportation.
Their food budget consists of $ 24 a
week in food stamps.
During the spring, while Randy
and Sheila awaited the arrival of
food stamps, they were referred to
the Komonia House, a church- sponsore- d
organization that provides
one- time- on- ly emergency food
boxes, and to the Central Missouri
Food Bank, where they received gro-ceries
tifeee a month.
" We might not always have gotten
exactly what we would have
wanted," Randy says of the help
from the food bank, ' but we never
went hungry "
To bring in additional income just
before her job was scheduled to end,
Sheila decided to sell most of her re-cord
albums Randy took almost 150
to a used record store to strike a
deal.
The store's employee was inter-ested
in only four of the albums
Randy made $ 2
The frustration is wearing on Ran-dy
and Sheila. But Sheila says she
tries her best to help Randy through
periodic bouts of anger and feelings
of inadequacy over his inability to
earn a living
" It's making me mad," Randy
said, " and I can't take it much long-er
" There ain't no work out there
There ain't nothin' "

Moberiy inmate killed
in afternoon stabbing
By Nolan Ctsy
State capital bureau
MOBERLY An inmate at the
Missouri Training Center for Men
was killed Tuesday after he was
stabbed m the chest during an af-ternoon
recreation period, a prison
spokesman said.
The inmate was identified as
James Edward Bausley, 22, of St
Louis He began serving a 10- ye- ar
sentence for second- degre- e murder
at the Moberiy prison in March 1980
His death was the latest in a series
of disturbances at the overcrowded
medmm- secun- tj institution. One
guard was stabbed to death and five
others injured July 3 Guards staged
a walkout four days later
Prison spokesman Dan Henry said
a teacher in the center's academic
school went for help after he saw
Bausley and another inmate scuf-fling
in front of the prison's gymna-sium
about 2 40p m. Tuesday
Inmates already were carrying
the wounded Bausley toward tne
prison's infirmary when prison em-ployees
arrived, Henry said. The
employees took Bausley the rest of
the way on a stretcher, but he died
shortlv after arriving at the infirma
ry, Henrv said Bauslev had been
stabbed once in the chest, he said
Guards were in the prison vard at
the time, Henry said, but none was
in the immediate vicmitv of the in-cident
The stabbing was under mveshga
tion Tuesdav night but Henrv de-clined
to sav whether a suspect had
been identified
After the stabbing prison officials
recovered a 13- me- n. homemade steel
knife tapered to a point. It had a
tape- and- clo- th handle and was three- fourth- s
of an inch wide
The stabbing occurred despite a
thorough search of the prison, which
followed last week's death. We're a
very large facility, " Henrv said
' We could have missed it ( the knife)
or it could have been manufactured
since then."
Prison officials last week doubled
the guard by implementing two 12- ho- ur
shifts and gave guards on cat
walks in the prison's housing units
access to shotguns Officials remov-ed
the shotguns Monday after Super-intendent
Carl White consulted with
guards, Henry said " Thev were re-moved
with the concurrence of the
officers," he said

A St Lotus insecticide and home
deodorant company is one step clos-er
to relocating to the Columbia
area.
Boone County Court met Tuesday
with Puro Corp officials at a public
hearing in the court's continuing at-tempt
to secure a $ 258,000 Missouri
block grant The grant would pave
the way for Puro to move here.
The money would be used to repair
Route Z and extend natural gas lines
from Sunrise Estates to Puro's pro-posed
plant site at Route Z, one mile
south of the Cemraha exit on Inter-state
70.
The corporation, a subsidiary of
Conhco International, would spend
an additional ? L2mfllion on reloca-tion
costs and a new braiding.
The relocation could be contingent
on the avaflshUfty of the grant said
Stan Shawver, ccsaty planning di-rector.
He ts optimistic however,
that the state will approve the grant
after about a four- wee- k review pen--
od, the next and final step in the
grant request process.
The move would generate 55 local
jobs, said Stanley Altepeter, Puro
plant manager About five exec-utives
and engineers would be trans-ferred
from their outdated St Louis
plant he said.
Altepeter also assured the court
that Puro would bring a clean pollut-ion
record with it to Boone County
" We comply with all the EPA reg-ulations.
We've had pollution tests
by ( St Louis city) and they have al-ways
been favorable," Altepeter
said. Puro, housed in St Louis since
1946, would recycle the granular
waste and there would be no liquid
by- produ- cts or chemical emission
into the sewers, he said
Discussion centered on the fumes
of the chemical peradichloralben- zen- e,
used to make the company's
moth prevention products The com-pound
vaporizes as the products are
made.
Breathing the fumes does not pre-sent
a health risk, according to Oc-cupational
Safety and Health Admin-istration
studies, Altepeter assured
the court Southern District Judge
Kay Roberts said independent re-search
she conducted with the Uni-versity's
trace- substan- ce division
substantiates this.
This didn't prevent the judge from
firing a series of questions concern
ing the environmental impact of the
compound. " Now is the tune to ask
these questions. When the public
smells this strange smell in the air,
there will be answers on public re-cord,"
she said.
The judges were satisfied with Al- tepet-er's
answers There was no op-position
from the public at the meet-ing
and Shawver said he has
received no negative phone faiu
The proposed 6.5- ac- re tract is in
an industrial zone and not near any
residential communities The plant
would specialize in toilet- bow- l de-odorants
and the only insecbde pro-duced
would be mothballs, said Pre-siding
